Predict a 2-1 for Portugal and a 2-0 for Germany. But I like all of them ^^ | ||

Portugal - Spain is also going to be a 2-1, I'm just still not sure which side will score the two goals. Leaning a bit towards Portugal atm. | ||

Basically, I'm betting Spain, the guys play together for 5-6 years, Alba seems to have settled already, Silva is even more dangerous, Iniesta kicks ass (best player on Earth right now, hands down). Casillas saves every time when defence fails. The final will probably be very boring though, so at least I look forward for a good game in Germany - Italy. Spain - Portugal 1-0 Germany - Italy 3-1 Spain - Germany 1-0 | ||

Barely conceded in qualifying, have conceded one all tournament and barely conceded in 2010 as well. This tournament across 360 minutes of football they've let their opponents have two decent chances on goal. The chance Di Natale scored and the header Rakitic missed. Portugal are extremely unlikely to score against Spain. Spain will win 1-0 with maybe an extra late goal once Portugal have to go for it. Portugal will park the bus. No, they conceded goals in 5 out of 8 games and the only team they didn't concede a goal to was fucking Lichtenstein. Among the nine group winners, only Netherlands conceded more goals per match than Spain. | ||

I wasn't saying Portugal is better than Spain (which it is in all possible matters), I was just saying that Portugal can actually score goals against the Spanish system. | ||

He is right anyway, the way to beat Spain (like the way you beat Barcelona) is to /defend and /counter with pace. Nani and Ronaldo have the pace, and they have an ok back 3 (if u discount Periera ) Chelsea beat Barca the same way with Ramires Drogba Mata counter attacking. Russia posed a mini threat at one stage to Spain doing the same as well.Also don't forget, this is a Semi Final, there wont be many goals in either game. | ||
